During pregnancy, the organism of the future mother undergoes a significant restructuring. There are changes in the work of both internal organs and systems. At the same time, the central nervous system undergoes the greatest changes.
The depth of adjustment depends in many ways on the individual characteristics of future mothers. In some women, behavioral functions undergo little change. However, in another part of the pregnant women, due to the restructuring of the functioning of the body, a very strong character change occurs.
Glycine is the number one choice for pregnant women.
. As if the pregnant woman did not try to protect herself from nervous stresses and stressful situations, completely avoiding them is not possible. This will require you to hide from the outside world. Stresses can be provoked by a wide variety of situations.
In this case, the pregnant woman becomes very irritable, she is concerned about irritability or anxiety, 
may manifest aggressiveness or drowsiness, accompanied by tearfulness.
In order to protect a pregnant woman from psychological stress, and also prevent further negative consequences, doctors often appoint Glicin. The drug is available in the form of tablets, which for rapid entry into the blood slowly dissolve under the tongue.
The name of the medication was derived from the Greek word "sweet" because of the sweet taste of the simplest amino acid, which is the main component of the drug.
Scope
In medicine, Glycine is used as a nootropic drug. Nootropics are intended to exert specific effects on the mental functions of the brain, such as:
- stimulation of mental performance;
- memory improvement;
- increased learning ability;
- activation of cognitive( cognitive) functions;
- decreased psycho-emotional stress.
At the same time, such tools allow increasing the resistance of the human brain to a variety of negative effects, for example, to excessive loads. In this regard, the drug can have both sedative and stimulating effects on the body.
Glycine is used for diseases of the nervous system, which are accompanied by behavioral instability, in particular in children or adolescents during puberty, with neuroses and vegeto-vascular dystonia, and to eliminate the consequences of ischemic stroke.
Contraindication is hypersensitivity to Glycine. Also, the drug should be taken with caution at a lowered arterial pressure in the patient.
Indications for pregnant women
Most of these situations occur during pregnancy and during pregnancy, Glycine can be drunk while bearing a baby, but only if the doctor prescribed it. But there are other situations, typical for women in the situation.
The period of gestation is characterized by the manifestation of absurdity and capriciousness even in those women who previously were characterized by a balanced and calm. Pregnant begins to constantly fear something, there are irrational fears, especially because of the health of the future child.
Because of these manifestations, the woman has lost sleep and appetite. However, the other extreme can also appear - all the fears that have been transferred are abundantly "stuck" with something delicious.
Constant stay in such a tense psychological state does not bode well for any future mother or her future baby. To address these problems, there are general recommendations:
- organizing the right daily routine;
- proper healthy eating;
- walks in the morning and evening in the fresh air;
- high-grade rest;
- medical gymnastics.
In case when the combination of these measures does not give the proper effect, therapy with medications is used. Often, in order to improve the state of health of a woman during pregnancy, Glycine is also appointed.
Under the influence of this drug is better absorbed glucose. And due to this process more energy is allocated for the activation of metabolism.
So, for example, the acceleration of protein metabolism allows you to restore nerve cells, and in the brain there is a faster elimination of toxic substances, softens the exciting effects of adrenaline. These processes can remove excitement, bring calmness, as well as restore the function of falling asleep and normalize the night's sleep.
It should be borne in mind that the stimulation of the formation of proteins contributes to the growth of the fetus. As a result, the drug is not only harmless to the future child, but also benefits the growing new organism.
Application and dosage features
Glycine can be used in any trimester of pregnancy, particularly in the early stages and has no other contraindications other than those previously indicated. Thus it is necessary to consider, that the agent promotes decrease in arterial pressure. 
Therefore, when carrying a child with a woman suffering from hypotension, Glycine is better not to use.
In case of a falling asleep, the drug is prescribed for taking twenty minutes before bedding or immediately before bedtime in the amount of 0.1 g( one tablet).
In all other cases, the dosage, as well as the duration of the drug, is based on the condition of the woman, taking into account her individual characteristics and can only be prescribed by the attending physician.
Glycine Forte and Glycine - there is a difference!
It must be remembered that any medication is used when carrying the fetus only at the doctor's request. The same applies to Glycin.
When buying a drug in a pharmacy, pay attention to the name. On sale there is a drug called Glycine Forte. This is another drug. In its composition, the amount of amino acid is increased almost threefold, and vitamin B. is present as an additive.
Since both medicines are sold without a prescription, there is a chance of confusing them when buying. The use of Glycine Forte during pregnancy can cause an allergic reaction due to an overdose of vitamin.
After all, often the doctor prescribes additional vitamin supplements. This in turn can adversely affect the health of the fetus.
The word for the young mother
Among the many reviews about Glycine, I would like to single out only one, from a woman who took the drug during pregnancy.
When laying on the preservation in the hospital in a position, I often had a lot of headache. Citramon every day for several times drinking was scary. I complained to the therapist.
He prescribed Glycine three times a day. Before that I knew that the drug does not heal and is completely useless, well, like a placebo. But. .. I drank it for a week and a half, and it's been two weeks after that - the flight is normal. No headache.
Svetlana. Kogalym, Russia
Glycine is a safe drug. It is appointed as a mild sedative that brings relief in cases of sleep disorders, the onset of anxiety or other non-severe forms of psychological disorders.
In more severe conditions - the appearance of chronic insomnia or depression, persistent stressful situations that affect the fetus negatively, treatment with Glycine will not bring the expected effect.
It is necessary to consult a specialist for prescribing other drugs.
